A young girl who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. Rydia is a summoner from the village of Mist. She lost her mother and loved ones when the King of Baron, driven by his fear of the Eidolons' power, ordered the village be destroyed. Although she initially hated Cecil, blaming him for the destruction of her home, his kindness gradually compels her to open up to him. Whilst holding on to the painful memories of her loss, she continues growing as a summoner with the help of Cecil and Rosa.

Background Story

5★	A young girl who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. Rydia is a summoner from the village of Mist. She lost her mother and loved ones when the King of Baron, driven by his fear of the Eidolons' power, ordered the village be destroyed.

6★	A young girl who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. Rydia is a young summoner with a pure and honest heart. She began her journey with Cecil and the others after her home of Mist was destroyed at the command of the King of Baron, who feared the power of the Eidolons. During their travels together, the Eidolon Leviathan swallows Rydia whole and her friends believe her dead. Unbeknownst to them, however, she ends up in the Feymarch where she grows into an adult in but a short period of time. When Cecil and company see themselves in great peril, Rydia rescues them with her newly improved skills in magic.
7★	A young female summoner who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons, and the last survivor of the summoners' village, Mist. After being swallowed by Leviathan during her journey with Cecil and the others, she was sent to the Feymarch, where she was able to age into an adult in a very short time. While physically an adult, she has kept her innocence and fortitude, and this sincere mind allows her to communicate with several eidolons. Aided by her powerful eidolons, she accompanied Cecil and the others until the end of their quest.

Notes

Gameplay

• Rydia has a variation: Pure Summoner Rydia.

Trivia

• This variation of Rydia resembles her appearance as a child in the beginning of the game. Oddly enough, this variation is superior to her adult variation.
• This variation also comes with her ability to use White Magic, and access to Eidolons that can be found as rare drops. She cannot learn or use Fire spells due to the trauma that happened to her village of Mist being engulfed in flames. She eventually used Fire with the support of her newfound allies. Her ability to use White Magic is later lost once she becomes an adult.
